Firecracker (Kennington) in Lambeth

Have been regulars at this venue every time I visit London with a friend. we always go for the unlimited Dim Sum, and it is always high quality food at an outrageously good price especially for London! Would never hesitate for a second to recommend this place for anyone into their Chinese. I keep my chopstick technique good purely for this place! Staff are wonderfully friendly and remember us every visit. Most recent visit was for my friends birthday (his 31st) and once again they went above and beyond to try and make it memorableaand and special for us. If you're going anywhere else in London for dim sum, you're doing it wrong!!

My sister and I were so impressed with the bottomless dim sum offer! Firstly, the service was absolutely perfect. Staff were very attentive but not overbearing and the food arrived quickly! Dim sum is generally quite expensive so you really get your money's worth here. We really enjoyed the food, in particular the jasmine ribs (sooo good) and the crispy pork belly buns. I would highly recommend this restaurant!

Visitamos en festivo. Diga al aire libre que fue agradable. Pedí una caja de bento, la sopa estaba insípida y la carne a la pimienta negra no sabía bien. El arroz frito con huevo estaba seco, probablemente no volverá a pedir de aquí.

Pedí comida de este restaurante y tuve que esperar más de una hora antes de que me la entregaran; recomendaría este lugar a cualquiera. . mala calidad y sin sabor. . .

La mía y mis socios van a llevar. Su comida está recién preparada y hermosa. Recomendaría las costillas o alitas, rollito de cerdo, vieiras y gambas y arroz con galleta al fuego. ¡MORIR POR! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! El servicio es A * también. También amable y dispuesto a satisfacer sus necesidades.

Orderd from here as a takeaway for the first time last night through just eat, was fairly expensive so was hoping it would be worth it and it was , delicious hot and fresh in lovely little boxes, will definitely be ordering from here again and hope it stays at the same high standards.

Have only had takeaway from here, but the food is amazing. Have tried out several dishes before settling on a favourite, but they're all very good. Friendly staff, and takeaway food is usually ready in about 15 mins. Definitely going back soon!

Firecracker has the tastiest crackliest Pork Bun I’ve ever tasted. The bun is soft and fluffy and the Belly Pork juicy with a crispy crackling. Really loved the Salt and Pepper Tofu too. Both these dishes are best eaten at the restaurant for the crispiness. I would also recommend the Spicy Soup Noodle with Belly Pork and Prawn and the Chicken Curry Laksa Soup Noodle especially if you like a bit of a spiciness. Both tasted yummy and authentic. It’s a really nice place for a lunch meeting, a good chin wag or social gathering. Service is tentative and prices are average around London. Can’t wait to go there again to try out more delicious authentic dishes.

Had wonderful light meal here on Sunday evening. Food could not have been better , and good value (for London) Excellent and friendly service. Will go back , but they do take outs too....

Being able to not finish everything is always a good sign. 4 stars as service was a bit wobbly (i think the guy was new) and had to repeat things

Desde os dim sum, aos noddles, tudo muito bem confecionado e rapidamente servido. Só achei as porções demasiado pequenas para o preço praticado.

I ordered from this restaurant after a recommendation and I could not be more upset and disappointed. I ordered thing to set the time for 9:30 pm, however, when I clicked order it defaulted to ASAP. After 20 minutes on the phone straight after I clicked order, begging them to hold the food in the restaurant for us to collect because we were not home, they delivered it to my house anyway and charged me £50. I would never EVER EVER recommend this place it is a complete and utter scam.

4 of us had a really fantastic lunch today. We all ordered the lunch special “Bento” box which comes with a huge number of choices: soup or endamame to start, then meats or veg; with rice options and 2 Sides, all for £9.50! I had beef with black bean sauce on steamed rice; salt & pepper chicken wings and broccoli. My colleagues had char siu pork; tofu & aubergine; and spring rolls and dumplings. All of it was absolutely mouthwatering. Great presentation; great taste; great value. Super, friendly service. Nice surroundings. I can’t wait to return. This was a brilliant find!

Just been to Firecraker for the first time and now wondering why we haven’t been before Can only say good things about this place from the time we walked in to the time we left Lovely friendly service, great fresh food and good portions and the little extra touches that go the extra mile like refreshing your tea half way through the meal, nice touch We’ve tried all the Chinesse restaurants in Kennington and this is by far the best Will be coming back again very soon or will be ordering a take away delivery to enjoy this lovely food again

Best fresh tasting Chinese / Thai food takeaway. Decent size portions, little pricey for just a Friday night takeaway but food is great tasting and you don't get that guilty feeling after like most Chinese takeaways! Totally recommend this place ! Brilliant food - good for meat and non meat eaters too!

This restaurant had been open for a while as a takeaway. I was searching for somewhere to go in Kennington and found this. It is not a huge restaurant and not lavishly decorated, work in progress maybe but it has great service and truly wonderful...

Very laid back evening with great quality food. Very well presented, taste was far superior to your average London Chinese restaurant. The staff were very friendly and had great banter!

I was visiting a friend who just moved to the area and we wanted to go someplace close for dinner. Stumbled across this restaurant and went in for dinner with no big expectations. To our surprise, we all loved our dinner. Their pork buns were...

I'd been waiting for this place to open properly as the takeaway service opened months ago but the eat-in restaurant didn't seem to be getting finished. I'd begun to wonder if it would ever open. Anyway the food and service were very good. Well cooked,...

Tofu everywhere even when not shown on the menu ingredients. Service patchy. Needs to improve everything quickly as it's substandard. Not especially cheap either.

We went for lunch on a Friday as a group of five and opted for the bento box set lunch these were great. For under £10 you get a choice of a main, 2 sides, a choice of rice, and a starter of miso soup...
